Her character Valkyrie was previously revealed to be one of the first LGBTQ characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The franchise has previously been criticised for merely paying lip service by making its LGBTQ characters supporting or background players and diminishing their queerness. 

Tessa arrived in Australia just three weeks ago, and has since been spotted soaking up Sydney’s hot spots including Bondi Beach and Crown Sydney’s Nobu restaurant.
